And... for bonus points, is there a way to call
them from my application under Leopard while still allowing my
application to
run under Tiger?
You can weak-link against API that's only available in certain OS
releases to allow your app to still launch on older versions of the
OS.
This is accomplished by setting the "Mac OS X Deployment Target" build
setting in the appropriate project or target build configuration in
Xcode.
The "Mac OS X Deployment Target" build setting defines the lower bound
for your application: The minimum Mac OS X version you want it to run
on. The SDK you choose, on the other hand, defines the upper bound:
The maximum Mac OS X version you want to be able to use API from.
I've seen a lot of developers say things like "I need to use the Mac
OS X 10.3.9 SDK because I need to run on Panther" and that's not
strictly the case, so I thought I'd point this out.
